Popping my submitting cherry!

I have been an associate member of CGC for over three years now but never have taken advantage of being able to submit my own comics for grading...

...until now that is.

I have sent ten comics off to be graded. I am holding back on a number of comics for signing and grading when I go to Megacon in March. This includes my New Mutants 47 that Ronnylama sent me. So I will have to be patient on those.

The issues I sent off today are...

VIGILANTE 19

VIGILANTE 28

PUNISHER V2 number 1

SPAWN 1

DAREDEVIL 273

DAREDEVIL 380

ANITA BLAKE VAMPIRE HUNTER GUILTY PLEASURES 1 sketch

LONGSHOT 1

WHAT IF? 47

DAREDEVIL AND THE PUNISHER CHILDS PLAY nn

I chose these issues for a number of reasons.

The Vigilante copies are two of the issues I received from Ronnylama and I just want to get them done because CGC Vigilante issues are practically nonexistent.

The Longshot Punisher Spawn and Anita Blake number ones are because they ARE number ones.

Daredevil 380 and What If 47 are both last issues of their respective series.

The Childs Play one shot is simply to have one graded that will come in one of the thicker cases.

But one of the main reasons I am doing this is to test how my personal abilities at gauging grades lines up with CGC standards. Its also to just have gone through the experience of submitting issues this way and the whole process involved in doing so.

We will see how I fair in the grades but I am pretty sure they all have more than a reasonable shot at achieving 9.8. I wont be surprised to see the What If come back as 9.6. It is the one issue I am not 100 percent sure about.

The Daredevil 273 has a real shot at 9.9 in my opinion! That is the reason I am sending it in.

I will do updated journals on my personal experience with submitting.

MUCHO thanks again to Ronnylama for his generosity.
